Fish and Plants Go Together


Gold Post Medal for All Time! 555 Posts

Fish and Plants Go TogetherI keep an old turkey baster next to my little fish bowl. Every few days I will use it to suck out some water and the dirts accumulated on the bottom of the tank and feed my plants. Then I can replace a cup or two of clean, aerated water into the bowl, reducing my need to change the whole fishbowl and feeding my houseplants at the same time!

Great for kids with a 'first time pet fish' too!

That is a nice idea, but there are a few problems with your idea. Your fish needs a much bigger tank, especially a goldfish. They are an extremely dirty fish. Put him in a 10 gallon tank, complete with light and filter, and you'll have a much happier fish. You could still siphon out a bit of water for your plant.

Please dont keep a goldfish in a bowl like this!! Theyre fish that require very large tanks, and as the other person mentioned, goldfish are very dirty fish. This water is already very foggy, probably from ammonia.

Yes, you can definitely put the tank water into a plant, but make sure the fish is properly housed. Also be sure to dechlorinate the water. Tap water with chlorine will kill fish.
